Sulzer ejector

for priming

There are many ways to pump the liquid from a

sump. Now you can choose the process pump with
the highest efficiency and best performance for your
application and prime the suction pipe and pump
with a Sulzer ejector. Ejectors can be installed for all
standard process pumps, both as retrofits for existing
installations and for new installations. It offers an easy
solution for enabling fast, reliable and fully automated
priming.
Easy to install and use
• Because the ejector and valves with actuators are
installed to the piping, no additional modification to
the pump is required
• The ejector requires pressurized air (4 - 10 bar)
for priming, and electricity is necessary for the
automated valves
• Either a local control box or a mill automation system
can be used to control the ejector
Save energy while reducing your total cost
of ownership (TCO)
• Pressurized air is required only during priming
• The ejector consumes no energy during normal
pumping sequence
• The robust and simple design minimizes installation,
maintenance and operating costs
Improved reliability
• Automated priming
• Easy to use
• Service-free with no rotating parts
• Manufactured in superior Duplex A890 Grade 3A
material to ensure application versatility
